The 41-year-old marketing consultant
received the endorsement as allegations of gay baiting began to
surface on the Internet.

In a video posted at Liberty.com, a
female newscaster praises O'Donnell, then suggests her September 14
GOP primary opponent, Rep. Mike Castle, is gay.

“Isn't Mike Castle cheating on his
wife with a man?” an unseen voice asks.

“That's the rumor,” the gleeful
newscaster responds.

While O'Donnell has denied any
involvement in the gay baiting, she has repeated the claim several
times while distancing herself from the controversy.

POLITICO.com reported that at least two
O'Donnell backers are involved with Liberty.com, including tea party
organizer Eric Odom, the group's founder.

The newly-formed conservative group
says it hopes to match or eclipse the influence of progressive group
MoveOn.org.

“We're looking to compete directly
with MoveOn.org,” Yakes Walker, a spokesman for the group, told
POLITICO.com. “We're looking to be a player for a long time. No
one else on the right is doing what we're doing.”
